A confidential settlement for a family who lost a loved one due to medical misdiagnosis and treatment. The individual complained of abdominal pain and was diagnosed with idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura (ITP). The physician failed to note that blood tests showed the patient actually had thrombotic thrombocytopenia purpura (TTP) and administered a platelet transfusion that ultimately caused the death of the patient. The settlement amount remains confidential.
